How Tall Do Redwoods Grow in the Santa Cruz Mountains?

In the summer of 2012 a project was undertaken by Zane Moore and Steve Singer to find and measure the tallest tree in the Santa Cruz Mountains. All old-growth stands likely to harbor exceptionally tall trees were searched and the tallest tree proved to be a 328.1 foot tall redwood in Big Basin Redwoods State Park. This tree is known as the Headwall Tree, and for the sake of its continued well-being, its exact location is a closely kept secret.
